A driver makes an emergency stop and inadvertently locks up


A driver makes an emergency stop and inadvertently locks up the brakes of the car, which skids to a stop on dry concrete. Consider the effect of rain on this scenario. If the coefficients of kinetic friction for rubber on dry and wet concrete are μK(dry) = 0.85 and μK(wet) = 0.50, find how much farther would the car skid (expressed in percentage of the dry-weather skid) if the concrete were instead wet?
